summer update!

Granny squares, I'm hooked! I would like to crochet ANYwhere and ANYplace! Does someone know if you are allowed to crochet on the plane? Or is the hook considered a dangerous item? On Tuesday I'm leaving for 2 weeks to Finland, YES!!! Crocheting up high in the sky seems the max :-) oh the picture is of G squares for my pillow which is stained for ever by my darling nephew of 2and a half years!
My scarf with joyous colours is going strong. I do want to wrap it twice around my neck though, so still some knitting to do!
Hurray, my second attempt at growing an avocado plant seems to go well, will I have a green mini plant once back from Finland? Don't you just loooooove Alys Fowler with her avocado Alys? See youtube!She has definitely inspired me in more ways than gardening, I would love to have her wardrobe!!!
On the balcony (also a second try ) growing my own herbs seems promising. There is definitely something green arising from the dark soil in the left container(?) at the front are my sunflowers and at the back strawberries, which were delicious in my soyghurt! Oh did you notice the cutest watering can ever?! I looooooooooove summer YES I do!
ciao bellas!

hi :-)
Here a picture of the coasters I crocheted. As a novice to crocheting I am very pleased with the results. I tried out a couple of techniques but I must say the crocheting language is still a bit of a mystery to me. So I learnt to finish my coaster once starting it as I was making my own desings in my head and lost count otherwise haha.
I need to find someone who can explain me the terms and how to interprete the abbreviations. At work there is a colleague who just recently was bitten by the crocheting bug yet she encountered the same problems. Now we are discussing maybe to start some kind of a knitting club?
Have a nice weekend, Kristina
